[Verse 1]
Morning
It's another pure grey morning
Don't know what the day is holding
When I get uptight and I walk right into
The path of a lightning bolt
Sirens
Of an ambulance comes howling
Right through the center of town and
No one blinks an eye and I look up to the sky of
The path of a lightning bolt
Met her
As the angels parted for her
But she only brought me torture
But that's what happens
When it's you who's standing in the path of a lightning bolt
[Chorus]
Everyone I see just wants to walk with gritted teeth
But I just stand by and I wait my time
They say you gotta tow the line
They want the water not the wine
But when I see the signs
I jump on that lightning bolt
[Verse 2]
Chances
People tell you not to take chances
When they tell you that there aren't any answers
And I was starting to agree
But I awoke suddenly in the path of a lightning bolt
Fortune
People talking all about fortune
Do you make it or does it just call you
In the blinking of an eye
Just another pa**erby in the path of a lightning bolt
[Chorus]
Everyone I see just wants to walk with gritted teeth
But I just stand by and I wait my time
They say you gotta tow the line
They want the water not the wine
But when I see the signs
I jump on that lightning bolt
[Verse 3]
It was silent
I was lying back gazing skyward
When the moment got shattered
I remembered what she said
And then she fled in the path of a lightning bolt
